Feedback Correct a. and c. should be assessed. Peripheral pulses and skin turgor of the feet are appropriate assessments. Incorrect b. and d. are not necessary. Post-tibial blood pressures usually are only performed on infants and small children and capillary refill of the toes would be appropriate, but not the fingers. |
